Paul DeAngelis details his 2019 Heisman Trophy watchlist.
I took a casual poll on whether or not college athletes should be paid or compensated when their respective university uses their image or likeness. The results were not as I expected. Out of about 100 people who responded, 72 of them said that college athletes should not be paid. This sample included people who had played and who were passionate about college athletics, people who were recently out of college and people who have been graduated for a long time. I personally voted that they should be compensated for their image being used for marketing or recruiting and in a way, they are with scholarships. But we all know that scholarships can only help so much.
Paul talks about five college football teams that you should consider jumping on the bandwagon for.
Paul gives his three locks for this week in college football.
Welcome to the first week of my game picks. In this series, I will pick every single game that is being played on Saturday’s (plus any good games on Fridays). For the sake of my reader’s eyes not glazing over, I will only give my reasoning on picks for five games and they will always be the first five games in the article. Let’s get into it.
Paul gives his predictions for the 2019 ACC Coastal Division.
How will the ACC Atlantic Division play out in this college football season? Here are my predictions for it.
On August 5, the NCAA announced new criteria for agents wishing to represent a student-athlete.
As summer begins each year, the risk from heat-related illness heats up as the mercury rises. On average over the last 20 years, 3 football players have died from heat-related illness. Most of these have been high school athletes, but it has happened at all levels of football as well as other sports. In 2001, Korey Stringer, an offensive lineman for the Minnesota Vikings died from complications related to heat stroke during training camp. Following his death, Korey’s wife worked to bring the message about heat stroke to as wide an audience as possible. In 2010 the Korey Stringer Institute was founded at the University of Connecticut with the goal of increasing the research on and reducing the risks of Heat Stroke.
The NCAA is as corrupt of an organization as they come. When the idea of the transfer portal came into fruition, I loved it. I still love the concept, but the NCAA has so poorly mismanaged it to the point where it’s a popularity contest as to who’s waiver gets accepted or denied.
On Wednesday, May 22, 2019, Juwan Howard was named as the 17th head coach in Michigan’s Men’s Basketball history. It will be his first real head coaching opportunity, not counting the NBA Summer League. He replaces a man who will live on as a Michigan legend forever, in John Beilein.
